Stokes & Son, Medal Makers, is a Melbourne-based company that specializes in the design and production of high-quality medals, trophies, and awards. The company has a rich history that dates back to the 19th century and is closely tied to the life of its founder, Thomas Stokes.
Thomas Stokes was born in Birmingham, England, in 1831. As a young man, he was apprenticed to a diesinker and gained valuable experience in the art of metalworking. In the 1850s, Stokes decided to migrate to Australia in search of gold and other opportunities.
After arriving in Melbourne, Stokes found that his skills as a diesinker were in high demand. He quickly established himself as a skilled craftsman and began to build a reputation for the quality of his work. In 1863, he founded his own business, Thomas Stokes, Medalist, which would eventually become Stokes & Son, Medal Makers.
